The OP made me chuckle, heh. I imagine (and I believe you're imagining) something like this: Dominic: "Just because X happened, doesn't mean Y is true." Antonio: "Yeah, I don't think we can trust the words of a guy with a one-inch pole." This style of response, while somewhat amusing, is fallacious (usually just ad hominem (abusive)). There's no specific name for when the part of the person being attacked is seen or unseen (logically, insulting someone by weight, or manhood size, are the same thing). Another could be: Violet: "I wish people would realise A and B are not mutually exclusive." Kathryn: "You're saying that because you can't get laid." This sounds more like ad hominem (circumstantial), but it's fallacious for similar reasons. |
